In one incident, Tomillero said a soccer fan shouted “You can stick the goal up your arse, you fucking poof” after he gave a penalty during a game last Saturday, The 'Game Of Thrones' Star Art Parkinson Guardian reported. Even worse, Tomillero said the crowd of soccer supporters Shoots Down Shaggydog Theory erupted with laughter. Tomillero first came out as openly gay to Spain’s El Espanyol in March of last year.
